Good call, possible contender there.

Though surely the music would be better ?

Yes missed that.

wikipedia says that new type front lights appeared from 2012, so is it 'after 2009' car or actually 'after 2012'?

Meaning - new.


WOW

EDIT: noticed a mileage - 2,614

[Beefmeister]

This is actually the 2012 facelift, with the awful rectangular headlights, not the mild facelift of 2009 as the article states...

If it is after 2012, that of course means it is also after 2009.

If I could, I definitely would as well. Respect.

Fantastic, if I had a few acres i'd definitely be giving my XJR some of that treatment!

Let's remember that Rolls were used as a mixture of a fast-attack vehicles, machine gun nests and mini-tanks during WW1 - TE Laurence famously slapping down the Ottoman Empire with a bit of upper-class guerilla warfare with their help etc. etc.

This is a bit lame by comparison - tho I'm impressed that it didn't just dig-in and flip over...

fk a tramp!

1. one of those guys nearly became part of the inferno
2. I think if I were doing that, I;d have been less worried about cool Oakley oggles and more minded to wear a crash helmet

This is what grown men get up to when there's no H&S adult supervision to interfere. It's like that chap Carrol who won the lottery really, just with more money, but either way a fantastically good waste of time.

That is what was know round my parts as "nuttering" and I can recall that one of our local eccentrics (or just plain nutter of which I would claim to be also) had about 3 Rolls Royce and it was tradition for him and a couple of palls to have a race in them around his fields every boxing day.

Have done similar about 20 years ago in a friends Audi 200 Tresser quattro (in Don Johnson white) in the middle of the night when it would spit flames and pop and bang, we obviously upset some of the more staid locals as the old bill turned up in force; two riot vans and four cars.

Oh how I miss nuttering.
